Sneak Peak to my Hp-Case

small purse, coin purse, hp case, whatever it's called, for me it's a Multipurpose Purse...
Let's see how i made it...it's super-easy...











This is the first sewing step:
after pressing the interfacing, if you have sewing label or something like that, attach it first to the fabric (main or lining, that's your preference...)...i always, always forget doing this...when it comes to sew...i just want to sew...
Then, start attaching the main fabric to the zipper for both side...





Attaching the linings to the main fabric AND the zipper...first, i sew the linings to the main fabric to make it attached and not moving...then, i sew it to the zipper (lower seam)







I cut the edges to make it neat...make it more shaped









Next, i divided the main fabric and the linings...pair the main fabrics and pair the linings...and then, sew them...
Don't forget to leave a small hole, so you can pull the fabric outside...
After that, cut the zipper...
DONT FORGET: the zipper must be opened a little bit, so when you pull out the fabrics, it's not like zipped from inside...it will make you difficult to open the zipper, then...







After pulling out the fabric...see the hole?...






sew the hole with handsew...
then, pull out the purse, THROUGH the OPEN ZIPPER...now, you see why you must open the zipper before (^.^)






Still not clear? just email me (^.^) ... i don't make a full tutorial for this because i don't have any copyright if i do...well, actually it's quite commong about this technique but some people use some free pattern unwisely...they sell it...hmmm...saw the topic on flickr...that's very unethic for me...well...so, if you want to ask more, please email me: sweetnichan@nichancraftroom.com ...
Happy Sewing, then (^.^)/
PS: Sometimes, eventhough, i've tried to display my writings in blogger well, but i don't know...seems like it doesn't show like that after publishing...so, if you see it happens, please see my other blog: http://nichancraftroom.multiply.com ...there, it's usually what i type shows just like that...
thank you for understanding (-.-)
